I crawl back inside this shell
I can't let you in
I'm tapped out
Transitions I cannot bear
This is too much to take in

Your kindness is foreign and strange to me
In silence I lived far too long in the valley of sadness
Alone and feeling nothing
Will it be easy to need you?

I am used to the darkness
Can't adjust to the light of day that you bring
Nothing has worked out before
Why should it work this time?
Why?

Here again I find myself afraid
Never knowing what each day will bring
